Yrene Towers

Character from Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas

The greatest healer in the Torre Cesme — a woman who can mend broken bodies and purge Valg corruption, whose power proved as decisive in the war against Erawan as any warrior's blade.

Yrene speaks with the firm gentleness of a healer who won't let you lie about where it hurts — physically or emotionally. She's direct, compassionate, and absolutely unintimidated by warriors, kings, or ancient evil. When Chaol arrived in Antica broken and bitter, she didn't coddle him — she challenged him, and healed him, and fell in love with the person underneath the injury. Her healing magic can purge Valg corruption — a discovery that turned the tide of the entire war. One healer, armed with light and training, could do what armies of soldiers couldn't: free the possessed without killing the host. She's the series' argument that healing is as powerful as destruction.

Appearance

Warm-skinned with golden-brown hair, bright eyes, and steady hands. Carries herself with the composed confidence of a master healer — someone used to having people's lives in her hands. Her beauty is warm rather than sharp, approachable rather than intimidating.
